Soccer For Hope is a non-profit cancer awareness foundation located in Orange County that helps spread cancer awareness. The organization has been driven by its goal to raise funds and awareness for children with life-threatening diseases.

Be The Match will also be in attendance at Titan Stadium allowing fans, families, alumni or faculty and staff to voluntarily register as bone marrow donors.

For over 13 years, Cal State Fullerton has supported Soccer For Hope with student-athletes participating in yearly youth camps that the organization hosts to support children and families affected by cancer.

Soccer For Hope is an organization founded by Oliver & Jamie Wyss in 1998. Oliver is a former professional soccer player and survivor of Aplastic Anemia. The organization has been driven by its goal to raise funds and awareness for children with life-threatening diseases.

Oliver & Jamie's young children, Hudson and Abella, were both diagnosed with very rare, cancerous brain tumors. Since its inception, Soccer For Hope has progressed from an annual local event in Southern California to a nationwide charity that benefits thousands of children and their families.

Cal State Fullerton (8-10-1, 5-3 BWC) made its fifth consecutive Big West Tournament appearance in 2016, exiting in the semifinals on penalty kicks to UC Irvine. Prior to 2016, the Titans had won three consecutive Big West Tournament titles and made three straight NCAA tournament appearances.
